I have the Pro Nav, and find it pretty handy to be able to read (or have it dictated) any new SMS messages that I get whilst I'm driving.

But I can't find anyway of replying to the messages. There appears to be a dictate option - but I have to be STOPPED ? Whats the point in that ?!?!? And I think I can only reply to an EMAIL address - even if I get an SMS ???

Am I going about it wrong? Is there a way to reply (preferably dictate) to an SMS ?

I have Bluetooth retrofitted to my E46 3 series sport. On the steering wheel to activate Siri, I simply keep the call button pressed for a couple of seconds. This activates Siri and I can give any command and reply to texts etc...

So does the call button no longer work the same way?

Lol, at the mis-quotes

Oooh haven't tried that, just get the BMW sorry with a short push......sorry because it gets everything wrong and takes so long to carry out commands.

I have the new pro nav in mine, which comes with Dragon Drive Dictation and allows you to dictate a text or email response while driving; though unfortunately I haven't actually got it to send with my iPhone 5 yet!

Do you need the BMW Apps option for this to work or just the Professional Nav option ?
